First, Jim and Greg complain about California's inefficent vote counting. We are still waiting for results in the governor's race involving Xavier Becerra, Steve Hilton, and Tom Steyer, and the Los Angeles mayor's primary with Karen Bass, Spencer Pratt, and Nithya Raman. They also discuss disappointing results in other contests. Next, they dig into a new report revealing an estimated $25 billion in fraudulent Obamacare subsidy payments, along with additional Medicaid fraud uncovered in Ohio. How widespread is government healthcare fraud across the country? Then, they react to former First Lady Jill Biden’s claim that Joe Biden would have defeated President Trump in 2024 had he remained in the race. Jim and Greg strongly dispute that and wonder whether the Bidens will ever face reality. Finally, they focus on Alaska, where Sen. Dan Sullivan may have to share the ballot with another candidate named Dan Sullivan in the August primary. Is it a legitimate campaign or an attempt to create voter confusion? Greg and Jim also rip Alaska's convoluted voting system. Please visit our great sponsors: Quo Money is on the line. Always say hello with QUO.
